artists tend towards the opposite: fuck practice, fuck the camera, we're talented. Does anybody else smell high school? That's really a primitive standpoint in my eyes.....Artists who dont shine and grin for the camera(can somebody say 'attention-seeker'(s)), and who dont practice are just what they say they are.....ARTISTS... The above comment is not to denote the significance of practice and planning, however, inspiration and creativity are mere outdated relics and tales of the ancient it would seem to you then......?. I personally like to just go where I feel, not think or plan for, but feel. Mind you we all want the entire package to be good, but to me creativity is unique expression the individual brings that makes their music, djing, productions, what-have-u, different. Its like the difference of having one of those prefab homes that all your neighbors have, or building your own home custom to you and your family(family can be seen as the crowd here).....practice is good, but creativity is a extremely unique thing.... I personally dislike all the Folly-wood type of stuff, and thats just me....and respect those who dont go on camera.....it's a way of just being about the substance without all the glitter and attention......& hey, it was only when I was a young lad did I jump in front of the camera and say cheeeeeese, put the rabbit ears up behind a ma-f*cka's skull and all that.......not now when I am much older. Just my poor opinion, back to sleep I go......good string though, IMO, AGAIN....... NP....the blades of this fan.....
